About This Home
This property, Park Life, is a stunning luxury renovation of a classic South of Grand residence. It is located in the beautiful Greenwood-Ashworth Park neighborhood, and the home is elevated on the lot to provide fantastic views of this densely wooded area. Over the years, the home's layout became compartmentalized and dated. Alair Homes has reimagined and reworked the property inside and out, creating modern functionality and timeless finishes that will stand the test of time in this iconic Des Moines neighborhood. The Des Moines Art Center is a 5-minute walk from the driveway, and there are nearby walking trails, sledding hills, and playgrounds close by. It's also a short walk to the bustling Ingersoll District with its boutique shops, celebrated restaurants, an art gallery, and entertainment. Park Life was on this year's HBA Home and Remodeler's Tour in October. All information obtained from seller and public records.
